Scope

• The subject is nursing education rather than nursing practice, and the distinction is applied strictly.题目是护理教育，不是护理实务，这条界线划得很严。

• Undergraduate and graduate programmes are the two levels the journal names, and curriculum work sits at the centre.本科与研究生两个层次是刊物点名的对象，课程建设处在中心。

• Teaching and learning research is the main body, with study designs described well enough to be repeated elsewhere.教与学的研究构成主体，研究设计写得到别处能照做。

• Faculty development and the academic workforce are named, which puts the teacher as well as the student inside the scope.师资发展与学术队伍也在名单里，教师和学生一样在宗旨之内。

• Simulation and clinical teaching appear through the practice of preparing students for placement, not as clinical case reports.模拟教学与临床教学以培养实习生为落点出现，不是以临床病例报告的形式。

• Online learning has its own section editor, which shows the journal treating distance teaching as a standing subject.在线学习有专职的分栏编辑，可见远程教学在刊物里是常设题目。

• Methodology has its own corner as well, and the editor there writes about design rather than about results.方法学也有专栏，负责这一栏的编辑写的是设计，不是结果。

• Diversity, equity and inclusion are stated as core values rather than as a theme added to the list.多元，公平与包容被写作核心价值，不是后来添上的一个主题。

• Programme evaluation and accreditation work are inside the scope, since both shape how a school teaches.项目评价与认证工作都在宗旨之内，两者都影响学院怎么教。

• Staff development, continuing education and patient education are directed elsewhere, and the author page says so plainly.职工培训，继续教育与病人教育被明确指向别的刊物，作者须知写得直白。

• Clinical topics with no bearing on teaching are also sent elsewhere, which keeps the journal away from general nursing research.与教学无关的临床题目同样被劝投他刊，刊物因此不碰普通护理研究。

• Reviews are accepted when they are systematic, and the journal asks for the search strategy to be reported.综述要系统性的才收，刊物要求把检索策略交代清楚。

• Innovation reports have a place when the change is described with enough evidence to judge whether it worked.创新报告也有一席之地，前提是改动附带的证据够判断成败。

• The rejection list is published, and it names work that rests on self-report scales alone as a common reason for refusal.拒稿理由公开列出，只靠自评量表的研究被点名为常见退稿原因。

• A single group pre-test and post-test with no control is generally not taken, which rules out a large share of classroom studies.无对照的单组前后测一般不收，这一条挡掉了相当一部分课堂研究。

• Manuscripts are prepared in APA style, seventh edition, and references are checked by Edifix before review.稿件按 APA 第七版格式准备，文献在送审前用 Edifix 校对。

• Every submission is screened with Crossref Similarity Check, so a thesis chapter has to be rewritten before it can be sent.每篇投稿都过 Crossref 查重，学位论文的章节要先改写才送得出去。

History

• The journal began in 1962, and the National Library of Medicine records that year as its first.刊物 1962 年创办，美国国立医学图书馆把这年记为起始。

• Its first ISSN was 0022-3158, used until 1980, when the present 0148-4834 came into service.最早的 ISSN 是 0022-3158，用到 1980 年，之后换成现行的 0148-4834。

• The online edition carries 1938-2421, so the title has one number for print and one for the network.网络版另用 1938-2421，纸本与网络各有编号。

• Volume numbers run one behind the year, so volume 65 is 2026 and volume 64 was 2025.卷号比年份小一，第 65 卷是 2026 年，第 64 卷是 2025 年。

• Twelve issues a year is the pattern, and the journal has held it for a long stretch of its run.一年十二期是常态，这个节奏维持了很长一段。

• SLACK has published the title from the start, and the company remains independent of the large commercial groups.SLACK 从头就是出版方，这家公司至今不属于几家大型商业出版集团。

• Gold open access covers only 7.71 percent, so most papers still appear under the traditional model.金色开放获取只覆盖 7.71%，多数论文仍走传统模式。

• On that model the author assigns copyright to the journal, while the paid open access route leaves copyright with the author.传统模式下作者把版权让给刊物，付费走开放获取则版权留在作者手上。

• The journal is in both the science and the social science citation indexes, which is why one nursing category covers 194 titles.刊物同时进自然科学版与社会科学版引文索引，护理一个类目因此有 194 种刊。

• The research4life scheme is honoured, and authors in eligible countries can publish without the usual charges.刊物参加 Research4Life 计划，符合条件的国家作者可以免去常规费用。

• A full run from 1962 gives the archive more than six decades of nursing education material in one place.从 1962 年一路下来，档案里存着六十余年的护理教育材料。

• The board runs to about thirty three members, and it is not confined to the United States.编委约三十三人，并不限于美国。

• Tommy Dickinson at King's College London and Sharla King at the University of Alberta sit on it, so the roster has a British and a Canadian strand.伦敦国王学院的 Tommy Dickinson 与阿尔伯塔大学的 Sharla King 都在名单上，编委里因此有英国与加拿大两条线。

• Three former editors are honoured as emeriti, Janis P. Bellack, Christine A. Tanner and Rheba de Tornyay, who died in 2013.三位前任编辑获荣休称号，即 Janis P. Bellack，Christine A. Tanner 与 2013 年去世的 Rheba de Tornyay。

• Because the journal sits with its own publisher, editorial and commercial decisions are made in the same building.刊物与出版方同属一家，编务与商业决定在同一栋楼里做。
